Shiva has come a long way! We introduced her last week with a photo from one of her first sessions. This was her last week at her final session. She’s become a dog her owner can leash up and take with her. She struggled with getting leashed up to go out, even just for a walk. Hope to see her at our group classes soon! #doggiemanners #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining #shibainu
Rambo on his last private session of the Good Dog Transformation program. He was just taking it all in and relaxing on a trip through L.L. Bean. Shops at Stonefield, ✔️ No big deal! If outings like these are a goal for you and your dog, reach out to us at www.leadthewayk9.com. #doggiemanners #gooddog #cvilledogs #leadthewayk9 #charlottesvilledogtraining #ShopsAtStonefield #pitbulllife
Some video clips from last weeks group class. They were practicing recall, away from oncoming dogs. Everyone did great! Apologies for the poor videography! #leadthewayk9 #charlottesvilledogtraining #dogtraining #cvilledogs #doggrouptraining
Keep training interesting! Once you have an established communication method and foundational obedience, options are endless! #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining #tricktraining
So proud of this guy! Charlie showing off his good manners in public during one of his private sessions. He walked around Stonefield and even got to do a trip to Orvis! Can’t wait to see this guy in our group classes! #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining #doggiemanners
Great seeing everyone at group class on Saturday! Seeing so much progress with all these dogs! #doggiemanners #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining #practicemakesprogress
Finn, Kai and Sesame showing off their rockstar recall! Hard to believe these three started with us with reactivity. They are doing this and paying attention to their owners, all with other dogs nearby. #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining
Here is Lulu, showing that even toy breeds at 5.5 months old can have great leash manners! #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining
So proud of this pup! Ori has come so far in training and now check out that recall! #gooddog #cvilledogs #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining
Apollo showing how we do. Nailing that recall and getting rewarded with play! #charlottesvilledogtraining #cvilledogs #gooddog #dogtraining
A beautiful day for group class, even if a bit overcast. Love seeing these attentive faces! #dogtraining #charlottesvilledogtraining #grouptrainingclass #gooddog #cvilledogs
Poodles, Doodles and Poodle Mixes are High Maintenance Dogs because of their grooming needs. Unfortunately sometimes clients get a new doodle puppy and have been told that they are easy, low or no shedding dogs that don't require much brushing or have even been told not to get them groomed before they are 6-9 months old. This is NOT true.
We recommend to our puppy clients that they schedule their first grooming salon visit by 12 weeks old. These types of dogs needs regular professional grooming every 4-6 weeks and maintenance brushing and combing at home. In addition to the scheduling commitment, comes the grooming budget you need to allocate. Expect to pay $45-75 each groom for a small poodle or doodle and $100-150 each groom for a large doodle or poodle.

Teaching your puppy to stay is easy if you start with taking 1 step away and then build up distance 1 step at a time. Remember to return to your puppy to praise and reward them for staying put. Bonus tip: teach them a unique Release Cue to let them know they are free to get up. We like to use the work "Free".

Our Halloween Pack Walk had a great turn out and we loved seeing all the fun and creative costumes. I think the dogs had fun too!
We had 2 lions, a dinosaur, a cow, a Celtics basketball fan, a team Germany fan, a pumpkin, a taco, a fairy and my personal favorite Apollo the #dutchshepherd who was a "crime scene" 😂

One of our Saturday morning Pack Walks who offer to clients who have done private training with us. Many of the dogs in this video were struggling with reactivity to dogs or people when they started training with us.

Phoenix is slowly making progress on the leash. His major issue was that he would suddenly dart in front of my feet as we were walking which was dangerous because he's so small and if I accidentally stepped on him or kicked him he could be badly hurt. So we have been working a little bit every day on him staying on one side of me as we walk. Check out his progress after only a few days!
